Traffic Question

Recommended Posts

If a vehicle parks in the road and causes an obstruction to other vehicles but has their hazard lights on, is this legal and acceptable? I saw this happen the other day on my way to work but wasn’t sure if it was lawful as I’m still in training and was curious.

Thanks.
